Pete Shelley - Promises lyrics

Ah, loving you is easy you are on my side We played the game strictly to our rules We led the field a love affair Which made all other lovers fools Oh, how can you ever let me down (down) How can you ever let me down (down) How can you ever let me down These promises (a-ah) Are made for us (o-o-oh o-oh) We promised that we'd always have time for each other Whenever I needed you'd be there We promised to be true there'd be no other We promised that forever we would care Oh, how can you ever let me down? (down) How can you ever let me down? (down) How can you ever let me down? These promises (a-ah) Are made for us (o-o-oh o-oh) We had to change Oh, but you stayed the same You wouldn't change Oh, what a shame 'Cause loving you's not easy you're not on my side We play a game with two sets of rules We lead the field in a love affair Oh, strictly meant for fools Oh, why did you ever let me down (down) Why did you ever let me down (down) Why did you ever let me down Those promises (a-ah) Were made for us (o-o-oh o-oh) You never have any time for me Whenever I need you you're not there You've never been true and it's plain to see The fact is you never really cared Oh, why did you ever let me down (down) Why did you ever let me down (down) Why did you ever let me down Those promises (a-ah) We made for us (o-o-oh o-oh)
